2008 $1 Centenary of Quarantine Uncirculated Coin

2008 marks the centenary of the signing of the Quarantine Act 1908 - the legislation that provides the basis for human, plant and animal quarantine in Australia. The Centenary of Quarantine recognises 100 years of dedication in managing the risk of pests and diseases entering Australia.
Quarantine plays a vital role in helping to conserve Australia’s native flora and fauna, and our multibillion dollar agricultural and tourism industries.
